It is shaping up to be a busy weekend for Island Bulls or Robin Hood as the FA Cup starts on island.

The two Carlsberg League sides kick off the competition at Devonshire Recreation Club tonight at 7pm in the play-off match, with the winners going on to play First Division Wolves in the preliminary round at the same venue on Sunday at 2pm.

There are seven games being played in the FA Cup this weekend, with the action continuing when St David’s host Inter BDA at 2pm on Saturday.

The Carlsberg League-First Division clashes carry on 24 hours later with Vasco taking on Somerset Eagles at Police Field at midday.

There are double-headers taking place at Devonshire Rec and Wellington Oval on Sunday, with Tuff Dogs taking on Boulevard at the former venue at 4pm after the conclusion of the game between the winner of Bulls and Hood and Wolves.

In the East End, Terrace Onions take on Southampton Rangers at Wellington Oval at noon, with that match followed by Hamilton Parish facing FC Rhino at 2pm.
